Spray the area with some soap water or with cleaning sprays. Goo gone work really well for this and might allow you to skip the blow dryer in the next step.

Next, wipe the area thoroughly with a microfiber cleaning cloth. Skip this step if you're using Goo Gone.

-
Turn on the hairdryer and put it in its hot setting.
-
Start heating the sticker from a few inches away. Try to heat the sticker from the center outward.
-
Using Goo Gone might allow you to skip this step, but for stubborn stickers, the hair dryer + Goo Gone will be most effective.

Tool used on this step:Plastic Cards$2.99
-
Use a plastic card and try to scrape the sticker from the edges.
-
If it doesn't work, try to repeat step 4 and then try again.

-
Finally, if there is any residue, heat the residue with the hairdryer and scrape it off with a plastic card or razor blade (depending on where the sticker is). Using Goo Gone makes removing any residue easy.
-
After removing all stickers and residue, use some detailing spray or cleaning spray to clean the area again and you are all set!

-
After these steps, you should have a clean surface without any residues!
